[quote=Anonymous]It's a matter of how the person asking defines their terms. The word opposite doesn't mean anything mathematically by itself. So this ends up being a question about the teacher. Did the teacher teach the arbitrary definition of opposite that we decided we want them to teach since we like making up new terminology in math rather than teaching real concepts with existing words? So rather than test actual mathematical knowledge they are teaching the memorization of arbitrary and meaningless definitions. What a waste. [/quote]
